look at the best moments from the first
three seasons of this HBO comedy series
oh and a spoiler alert is probably in
order what’s the thing it doesn’t make
it happen yeah agree number 10
panic attack diagnosis so you will
survive so it’s a garden-variety panic
attack
welcome to Silicon Valley whenever actor
Andrew daily pops up on this show the
results are always comedic gold daily
plays Richards doctor who has the worst
bedside manner imaginable as Richard
faces a life-altering career decision he
practically barfs up a lung his
physician writes this off as a
garden-variety panic attack which is
common in Silicon Valley we’ve seen
people like you all the time the doctor
adds to Richards phobias when he tells
them about another patient who was in a
similar position long story short he
ended up shooting and accidentally
blinding himself because he really
regretted not taking that money he shot
himself because he turned down the money
if that’s not bad enough the doc shows
Richard the proper way to commit suicide
and asks him to invest in his startup no
wonder Richard vomits again so will you
please let me know I’m gonna give you my
number
if you do end up taking that 10 million
dollars because we could really make the
world a better place
oh oh ladies number 9 AT&T Park
after Richard hits it out of the park at
TechCrunch everybody in Silicon Valley
wants a piece of him stern-taylor
even invites Richard and company to AT&T
Park to play with the San Francisco
Giants
needless to say Richard isn’t much of an
athlete oh yeah doesn’t that whoa
just as Richard feels out of place on a
baseball field he isn’t sure whether or
not to accept so many extravagant gifts
just over here but in all these firms
suck up to us even though we’re not
going to pick them right Erlich on the
other hand relishes is all these firms
suck up to them this opening to season
two has no shortage of memorable moments
as Gilfoyle and Dinesh compete for a
woman’s affection Erlich spots the
Winklevoss twins and Richard realizes
that everyone’s watching him where is
that camera number eight the Pied Piper
platform usability test although Pied
Piper has surpassed five hundred
thousand downloads the number of daily
active users is surprisingly low to
figure out what’s going on a focus group
is assembled to test the platform they
are totally freaked out but in all the
wrong ways
what specifically totally freaked you
out everything does every single thing
about it it suddenly dawns on Richard
that he almost exclusively showed the
Pied Piper platform to fellow engineers
mainstream users however have no idea
how it works this leads to a hysterical
scene as Richard confronts the group and
tries to explain the platform you’re
right it’s not actually on the phone but
you don’t need it to be on the phone if
you can see it on the phone even though
there’s nothing there at all but where
the hell is it it takes a while but
Richard eventually gets through to them
and guarantees this isn’t a Skynet
situation unfortunately you can’t give
this lengthy tutorial to everybody that
downloaded Pied Piper Pied Piper well in
no way becomes sentient and tried to
take over the world number seven they
always travel in groups that’s weird
they always travel in groups people
often think of tech billionaires as
supreme overlord that look down on
others from their ivory towers while
that might be a hasty generalization it
pretty much sums up Gavin Belson in a
nutshell the founder of hooli Gavin is
constantly making hilarious observations
about his employees in the pilot he
can’t help but notice that programmers
always travel in groups of five but it’s
not just any five guys nope it’s a very
very specific set of five types of guys
there’s always a tall skinny white guy
short skinny asian guy fat guy with the
ponytail some guy with crazy facial hair
and then an East Indian guy it’s like
they trade guys until they all have the
right group of course Gavin’s guru /
yes-man is there to feed his boss’s ego
and support his hypothesis you clearly
have a great understanding of humanity
number 6 the binding arbitration I find
Richard Hendricks did indeed reach his
contract with hooli when he hired away a
hooli employee at a binding arbitration
it looks like Richard is bound to lose
Pied Pipers intellectual property to
hooli excepting me inevitable
Richard instructs his friends to wipe
out the Pied Piper code before Gavin
Belson gains control as soon as you run
it will delete the entire code
repository Piper literally vanish in an
unexpected turn however the judge rules
in Richards favor as a result hooli has
no claim to ownership of Pied Pipers
underlying IP the problem is that
Richards phone dies with Pied Piper on
the verge of deletion this amounts to an
uproarious and even exciting race
against the clock
Richard faces one calamity after another
and he loses his car keys tries to send
an email and winds up just running to
the house don’t delete it don’t delete
it at first it appears that Richard is
too late
but luckily Pied Piper is reserved
thanks to Dinesh’s garbage code the
software you wrote to delete our
software just shit the bed no sir
number five Richard blows their cover if
anyone catches wind of anything that
we’ve done here we are this entire
episode is like one big joke with a
priceless punchline I’m willing to build
a box Richard in the gang decide to
build a Pied Piper platform in secrecy
he thinks were being good little boys
the guy spent the whole night devising a
foolproof plan to develop the platform
right under Jack Barker’s nose the
audience is led to believe that this is
the beginning of a major story art that
will progress throughout the season
instead we get the perfect anticlimax Oh
Oh Richard Oh tripping over a hose
Richard accidentally dropped several
documents and reveals the team’s plan
thus the top-secret project ends before
it even gets started probably should
have destroyed those documents at home
Richard not your smoothest move number
four the driverless car driverless car
an autonomous car might seem like an
incredible innovation if this subplot
proves anything though it’s that
driverless cars still have a long way to
go Jared is overjoyed when a
self-driving automobile picks him up
unfortunately the car changes
destinations to Peter Gregory Island
which is over 4,000 miles away I’m sorry
what mr. car we know what you’re
thinking how can a car drive to an
island well the car takes for Jared to a
shipyard and drives him into a cargo
container
oh no no excuse me please
unable to open the door he is sealed
inside with a 103 hour journey ahead
it’s a classic little problem that
quickly escalates into a much bigger
problem not to mention a definitive
Jared moment
and take me away number three Erlich
slaps a kid hi
which one was Earl ik is largely
responsible for some of the funniest
moments in the entire series in this
scene finds him at his absolute best in
desperate need of adderall to keep his
young programmer friend awake Richard
seeks out a young drug peddler and you
guys currently on adderall and ya want
to make $50 when Richard learns that the
kid ripped him off he politely asked for
some real adderall all he gets though is
a demeaning flap I can give you some of
this hey ya already full of pent-up
frustration Erlich comes to Richard’s
defense by smacking the little brat
across the face you just brought piss to
spite of them in epic fashion Erlich
tosses the kids bike into the bushes and
threatens his family Erlich may go a
little overboard but it’s beyond
satisfying seeing Church candy get his
just desserts
are you getting your teahouse you get me
five adderall I want split your
controller interest and number two
Schrodinger’s Condor egg hey guys so
almost two weeks since mother condors
been to the nest do you think something
might be wrong with the egg during a
live stream of a condor egg Jared fears
that the baby bird isn’t going to hatch
this of course sparks a conversation
about Schrodinger’s cat although the
others advise Jared to leave it alone he
decides to call the museum which results
in the live stream being shut down when
a technician arrives of the nest however
he suffers a great fall while he doesn’t
die it’s still jarring to see Silicon
Valley enter 127 hours territory the
fact that jared is kind of responsible
for almost killing a guy only adds to
the dark humor this is easily one of the
most shocking moments in the series but
it still prompts uncontrollable laughter
I just got a text from Richard
let me read it before we unveil our
number one pick here are some honorable
mentions it never forgets and I assure
you gentlemen of the hooli board and
lady
neither do I don’t tell me this is Zune
bed
I’m sorry Gavin a couple Maps bad
I killed the BAM bot your fanboy you
little Stanford my grill
number one the jerking off algorithm
welcome everyone to a journey into the
nucleus I hope that sucks at the
TechCrunch startup battlefield Pied
Piper goes head-to-head with hooli’s
nucleus while both applications have the
same Weissman score nucleus has the
upper hand thanks to several additional
features brainstorming ideas for their
presentation Ehrlich suggests giving
every guy in the audience a hand job
we’re going to win even if I am to go
into the auditorium and personally jerk
off every guy in the audience this
prompts an extensive conversation about
how Erlich could jerk off every crowd
member in ten minutes so what we’re
trying to do hypothetically is minimize
time which is 800 dudes x mean jerk time
divided by four dicks at a time the
subject matter may be immature but this
is quite possibly the most brilliantly
written scene in the whole series
furthermore it gives Richard a genius
idea as he realizes how to improve Pied
Pipers Weissman score overnight
sometimes inspiration comes from the
most unexpected places thread we got as
a function of lambda sub JD a committal
how queer you little house only $1,000
man-copter do you agree with our picks
